I've never heard of a Native American being referred to as an Aborigine. Maybe that's just me and my silly inatentiveness to detail, but what ever.

No McDonalds is not good for kids. Hell, it's not good for humans. Yes, this is a stupid topic. Yes, this is a stupid attempt to get attention (although it appears to be working). I don't know if this is Ms. Passmore or not and I really don't care. All I know is that reading the posts by Ms. Squirrely-whatserbutt here is obnoxious and impossible to understand. I would suggest that in the future we as a community ignore the posts made by Ms. Rhonda unless you really feel it is a true and valid question. I would also HIGHLY encourage Ms. Rhonda to read the English language and realize that one should not write as if one were constantly sending text messages on one's cell phone.

all i can say is, if this is you Amanda its very stupid and very sad that you have to do this. if not you need to sort yourself out. Admins please remove this little girl from here. she is making this site a horrible place to be in.

Quoting Melissa:

Amanda - give it up LOL

Melissa, Oh my! You have said similar if not worse things then this Rhonda has and still worse yet you give the advice out! You should give it up and this is the reasons little girls should not be having sex and definately not having babies. Please Rhonda get some help Canada has great opportunities take advantage of them please.

Alot of native americans here in Canada actually do not have actual birth cerificates and social services has little to no say at this time due to politics, even when it is in the best interest of the child. Alot of this could very well be true even if we have sympathy for the children involved that being said the mother is a child herself and could use more education and possibly less people acting as though this cannot be possible.

some 1 ask wher i wus from and i from a very smal res in bc. we go back ther sumtimes cause mi ohkoma stay ther still. we go 2 visit wit mi ohkoma a few time in a month. curntly we live in da qayqayt 1st nayshun.

Well, in that case I apologize. I was under the impression you lived near Broman Lake. Since you are in close proximity to a McDicks, I would suggest doing everything you can to convince your children to eat something else. They are stubborn about food, one of my nieces says she will only eat spaghetti and california rolls, but her parents manage to get a more diverse diet into her mouth with discipline.

I have no interest in defending Rhonda if she is a fake person & making all of this up. BUT, here in Canada where she is claiming to reside, the terms "Native Indian", "First Nations" and "Aboriginal" are all used, and mean the same thing. Which term you utilize depends on your political persuasion. Aboriginal is not the same as an Aborigine (as in an original dweller of Australia) but means inhabiting or existing in lands from the earliest times or before the arrival of colonists. Canadians who wish to show respect to our traditional peoples use this term instead of "Indians" which is considered to be an inappropriate title.

However, if she does reside where she says she does, by my estimation, the nearest McDonalds is a 180 mile round trip. That's quite a long drive for a frequent habit.

u dont no where i live. i neva told any 1 here dat.

If you are gettiting info from a nurse this it what you should follow! Go to the Woman Infant & Children office and follow up with them you can type WIC into your search engine and find your local office. It is not up to the child to decide what they are eating it is up to you, you are the mother. You can also ask your DHS worker for info and pamplets I know they have FREE courses on nutrion and what your children should eat.this you can also look up online! DHS

Wow! I learned something while being totally confussed. I too did not know that there were Aboriginals is Canada. Thought it was only in Australia that they were called that. Don't wanted to sound racist just completely ignorant. And Rhonda or whomever you are I have to agree please don't write as if you're texting teenagers all day long. If you want to entertain go ahead but make it readable and consistant. Must of us here did not grow up texting and don't talk and type like that. And if you are a real person and the fast food thing is a real problem then maybe you should stop trying to entertain on the computer and make your kids a real meal. You can find plenty of resources online. My twelve year old niece grew up on soda and fast food and she has the worst diet and is obese, has problems with her feet and I wouldn't be surprised if she is diabetic. It's easier to stop at the young ages than when they get older.

i know lol and check out her kids last names. one of them is apparently damien john bruised head. sorry for the slow reply i was looking some of her other posts lol

I must say it seems odd that someone with such a poor grasp of the English language still knows how to use punctuation??As for racist comments - nobody but you is making fun of the Native culture. This whole fake profile is beyond a joke now. Are you really that desperate to ruin people's experiences of CoMs??

I completely understand your desire to break your children of the McDonalds addiction. The daily journey from your reserve at Broman Lake, of over 100miles to Prince George or 75 miles to Smithers must be exhausting not to mention the cost of fuel! I highly recommend buying some good books on healthy cooking for kids. You seem to find reading english much easier than the writing so hopefully you'll have no problems following the recipes. Good luck.

Challenging the authenticity of a profile and the numerous ridiculous posts does not make anyone racist. Part of the reason people are offended by this is because 'Rhonda' is making fun of the Indigenous Canadian culture with these outlandish, exaggerated stereotypes.

the only people making this a horrible site are the ones critising her! i think this is a valued question, and i think that if everyone answered correctly instead of throwing rasist remarks around it would be a good discussion. i'm discusted with the moms being rasist, i have two mixed race kids, and my husband is nigerian. are you gonna take the piss out of his culture too? don't answer if you think she's fake, she's asking a question and you are stiring the shit!

my answer is i watched this programme on the telly and it was bout kids that don't eat well, there was this girl that only ate crisps (chips) and chocolate (candy). the doctor told them to allow this girl to eat like this and to get help from a neutitionist to introduce new foods, as long as the kids are healthy then it's all good. don't force them to eat what they don't want this is how kids become fussy eaters. as for the young ones african women add baby cereal 2 scoops to thier milk once they reach 4-6 months cause it helps them sleep and gives more neutrition.

hahaha Mel your so funny. omg she is cracking me up so bad this "rhonda" its hillarious. check out her profile what her kids names are, and also she had sex when she was 10., has 5 kids at 16 and one with FAS apparently LOL.

LOL everyone dont worry she started another silly post on young mums 20-30 thats locked now. its Amanda Passmore on a different account looking for attention and trying to stir the pot. but its hillarious so please amanda keep it up

I agree fast food should only be used a a treat and kids really shouldn't have soda at all. WE shouldn't even drink any soda because it's so bad for you. Some people mentioned buying chicken nuggets from the store but this is only a little better than buying them a McDonald's because they still have all the preservatives. If you want them to have chicken nuggets then you can make them yourself. It's really easy and much tastier I think. Here' the recipe that I use:

Mix 2 cups flour with 2 tbsp seasoned saltBeat one egg into one cup milkDip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture and then the flour mixture and repeat. You can fry them in a little bit of oil or you can bake them in the oven. They are very tasty! Good luck!

Kids will not starve themselves, so give them healthy options and eventually they will eat something. Your 5 year old knows that if he doesn't eat anything else, eventually you'll give him McDonalds. As for the soda in a bottle thing.....that is definitely not ok. It's horrible for them and I agree with the mom below that says you should give them water in a bottle or sippy cup. If you absolutely have to, you could mix the water with a very very little amount of juice, but that too is bad for their teeth. Hope that helps.

McDonald's is not good for kids. no fast food is. and what you teach your children to eat now is what they will remember and stick to. Junk food should REALLY only be a treat every once in a while, unless you want to struggle with things like obesity, diabetes and malnutrition.my suggestion is to not give an option. Have only healthy foods available and eventually they will learn to eat it. Right now they are in a habit of eating junk food,but when the option is taken away from them they will learn to eat healthy.just remember that the little bit of trouble you go through now will give your children health and vitality later in life, something which you cannot buy and never get back if it is lost.as for the root-bear. chuck it. children should drink water when thirsty. and soft drinks once again should only be given as treats. not even fruit juice as the sugar levels are to high for kids.Teach them now while they are still young. Trying to teach a teenager is like suicide. But if you fail to teach them now, they will have health problems when older. It is therefore all down to the choice you make now. Make it for their overall health and well-being.

McDonald's is not a good source of nutrition and should be a rare treat. You can make fried chicken/nuggets at home for your child if you want, which is healthier. You also should not give babies soda.

Especially if you have a nurse telling you to cut back, it's time to cut back. Offer several different foods at home -- fresh fruits and veggies, whole grain bread, etc. You can still make homemade fried chicken and such, it's fine. If you want to treat your kids with drinks, fresh squeezed lemonade (made fancy with the addition of a few fresh strawberries or raspberries if you want) can be nice. My DD likes this sometimes.

Just keep offering your kids healthy foods and they WILL find something that they'll eat. It's important to start healthy habits now.

I am a nurse and my hubby a doctor we tell parents that at this age if you can get them to eat let them eat what they like as they get older their tastes will change of course don't fed them cake and ice cream but it is chicken and it not the child is foing to get high cholerterol (spelled wrong) Every so ofter try to sneek in some fruit and veggies even if you have put cheese over the veggies or give a can of mixed fruit in the sweet juice it lays in

Are you saying that you give your baby soda? If so, this is really unhealthy as soda contains a lot of sugar and salt. If you are still breast feeding you should stick to that and give water in a bottle or sippy cup if you think the baby needs extra liquids.

As far as the chicken nuggets and Ketchup, there are plenty of healthier alternatives to McDonalds. You can still give your 5 yr old what he/she wants but make it at home so you know what is in it or buy some ready made at your supermarket but make sure to read the label first.

We all have problems with what our children will eat from time to time and you have to do what works for you just try to keep it as healthy as you can.
